I have somewhat of a soft spot for games that take place in environments typically visible only under a microscope. That's probably what drew me to watch the trailer for Cyto's Puzzle Adventure, which originated on iOS but i...

Following yesterday's news that The Witcher 3 had been pushed back to February 2015, my only real concern was how its extended development would affect another of CD Projekt RED's games, Cyberpunk 2077. It won't. Not in "any ...

In the past few years, there have been a few truths that I have come to realize in the realm of PC gaming: Valve will always treat its fans like gold, there will always be way too many indie bundles to buy, and CD Projekt RED...

ApathyWorks’ Cute Things Dying Violently, which you may remember as the top selling title of the Xbox Live Indie Games Summer Uprising event last August, is headed to PC! This adorably bloodthirsty li'l game ...

ZeptoLab is preparing to release a follow-up title to their hit mobile puzzle game (and now 3DS game), Cut the Rope. This new game, Cut the Rope: Time Travel, has cute little green guy Om Nom traveling to the past to visit h...

Cut the Rope is a perfect example of how such a simplistic design can be so fun. All you have to do is slice up certain points of the map to get candy to the adorable Om Nom, and that's about it. It was so successful that it'...

A new Cut the Rope game is heading for the 3DS according to Nintendo World Report. The physics puzzler will be developed by Abylight, while the original creator of the game, Zeptolab, will be publishing the title on the 3DS ...

This ghost, Mister Specter, comes from Curses 'N Chaos, an upcoming co-op arcade action title about smashing monsters. Developer Tribute Games (Mercenary Kings, Wizorb) has shared gifs of the first three bosses designed by Justin Cyr and animated by Paul Robertson.
This was one of the first emails I saw this morning and now I wish every day began with gifs.

This past weekend I was up late and feeling loopy, and some haikus about a Flash game nobody cares about fell out of that state. Struck with inspiration, I thought, "Why can't all news be digested 17 syllables at a time?" Th...

Remember that Peter Molyneux game that was supposed to "change the world?" You know, Fable? Then Fable 2? Then Fable 3?I kid, I kid. But seriously, Peter "not on rails" Molyneux is now once again promising great things, as hi...

Last month, I reviewed an auto-scrolling runner game for the iPhone called Curio. I wasn't too kind with my judgment, much to the disappointment of the title's main developer Rube Rubenstein. At the end of the day, though, th...

I can't believe Cuphead has only been in my life for less than a month after its quick E3 showing. I'm so attached to it already. It's the game I didn't know I needed. Forget these tired, 20-year old nostalgia trips. Ev...

A third-person shooter in which combatants are humans pretending to be airplanes -- this is Cult of the Wind. Despite the usual fears that something like this will lose its audience not long after launching, I'm so charmed b...

On Friday, the clock struck zero for Renegade Kid's Kickstarter project Cult County. The crowdfunding campaign failed to achieve its $580,000 goal by a wide margin. It seems that target was a bridge too far, as the Mutan...

Have you played Culdcept? If you haven't, it's a highly competitive strategy card/board game that is like a blend of the best parts of Monopoly and Magic: The Gathering. It started out as a Sega Saturn game and has seen ...

I'm not sure what Cube World is, exactly -- it seems like a lot of cool concepts rolled into a game that looks impossibly ambitious for the size of its development team (a husband and wife, in this case) -- but the open-world...

Zeboyd Games intends to bring its old-school role-playing game Cthulhu Saves the World to more platforms. With the help of Tinkerhouse Games, the team's brand of humor will grace iPhone, iPad, Android, and Mac early this year...

Last year’s CSI: Deadly Intent was a bit of an ugly duckling, and something many of us would easily scoff at if we saw it in a store. Yet even though it was just a CSI version of Ace Attorney with a crime lab -- witho...

After nearly three years in development, Levels or Lives' retro-inspired roguelike pixel art platformer Crystal Catacombs is almost ready to make its debut on Steam.

Sequel time! For the originals, here's Crysis and Portal.
I've learned my lesson. Crysis joins the list of franchises I'll never touch again. That's not to say Crysis 2 was a bad game. Just a bad all ...

FPS Crysis was always a PC thing, but now it's also a console thing as of today. Yeah, it's not going to look like it would on a high-end PC rig, but CryEngine3 is definitely doing some fancy stuff with the visuals.
You can ...

Earlier this week, indie mobile game developer Insurgent Games made all of their iOS and Android games free to download. On top of that, they have also made their source code for all the titles available to download from thei...

Are you playing Crypt of the NecroDancer? You should be playing Crypt of the NecroDancer.
It's a rhythm-based roguelike in which you hop around dungeons to the beat of music, a novel mechanic that ends up being enjoyable -- n...

Crying is Not Enough is trying to get itself Greenlit on Steam. It's like an unwitting spiritual successor to Deadly Premonition, if that trailer is any indication. It's full of amusingly stilted voice acting and features so...

Double Cryamore news, everybody! First off is the GDC demo's release to the public. I haven't had a chance to test it out myself (it looks like it will take around 7 hours to download), but it's free, so I can't be too ...

Cry On, an ill-fated role-playing game co-developed by Mistwalker and now-defunct studio Cavia, has reappeared after being put on ice six years ago.
Final Fantasy creator and Mistwalker founder Hironobu Sakaguchi shared the ...

Nearly five years ago, when everybody was trashing the PSP for having no games worth playing, CRUSH was frequently brought up as a neat little gem that introduced a new mechanic that worked well enough. It certainly wasn't a ...

SEGA has confirmed the release dates of Shinobi 3DS and CRUSH3D, with the sidescrolling ninja revival arriving November 12 and the perspective-bending puzzler dropping in on February 21.

PAX East 2014 is only 49 days away, and as has been the recent trend, it will feature an increased focus on independent games. Featured in this year's PAX East Indie Showcase are six titles, all of which are playable on phone...

Running on Sunside Inc's in-house platform, Crow looks spectacular for an iOS title. I'm not really sure what is going on in this trailer, other than that you are a crow and that there's some gameplay that is reminiscent of ...

Hipster Whale's endless mobile hit Crossy Road was previously only available from the Apple App Store and Amazon, but now Android users can play the game through Google Play, too.
I like Crossy Road, but not as much as some p...

From the first time I saw footage of Fourattic's nostalgia-bomb of an adventure game Crossing Souls on Kickstarter, I knew something special was going on. Apparently, so did Devolver Digital, as the publisher ...

Cross Horizon is nearing the end of the line. Marvelous AQL made an unceremonious announcement Monday evening, disclosing plans to discontinue services for the title at month's end.
Curiously, the Meteorise-develop...

What happened to the style and cleverness that came from heist thrillers? I remember watching films like Ocean's Eleven and Thief, that had little to no action or shooting. But now, these high-pressure and tense moments just ...

Croixleur Sigma is coming to PS4 on March 5 for 1,500 yen, and based on the details we have so far, I hope it gets localized.
The expansion/update of sorts will have a full visual HD upgrade, as well as more characters, mons...

"We're hoping we can get a western release out as soon as possible," Playism marketing manager and localization editor Nay...

When was the last time you barfed a rainbow? Has it been too long? Have you never barfed a rainbow? If you haven't, you should, and now you can without spending too much, because Critter Crunch is listed on PlayStation Networ...

Hearing about the new, remastered Crimsonland was super nostalgic for me. I've not yet played it on Steam where it's been available for a few weeks now, but I'll get to it, eventually. PlayStation 4 owners in need of a no-fri...

A couple of months back, we found out about Bungie Aerospace. This initiative to support and foster independent developers of social and mobile games came with an announcement for Harebrained Schemes' Crimson, which is now go...

The Guild01 collection is a very special project that I'm glad we could be a part of. Although the last game in the set isn't slated for a release out of Japan, the mere fact that Level-5 decided to take a chance with any of ...

Crimson Dragon director Yukio Futatsugi has taken some early criticism to heart, and has decided to adjust the difficulty of the game a bit -- specifically, he's lowering it with a launch day patch. After each fight your drag...

If you're enjoying Crimson Alliance but are getting close to the end, or have already beat it and want more, there is good news. Certain Affinity is releasing an add-on for the game, titled "Vengeance" that will add a ne...

Criminal Girls: Invite Only is a game I've been following for some time now, and right now I'm in the middle of reviewing it for Destructoid. Since there's still a bit of time left before it actually comes out, however, I've ...

Crime Connection, the latest iOS and Android title from Square Enix subsidiary Taito, is a free-to-play "social crime simulation" in the style of Mafia Wars. There is a serious caveat to the game, however, and I'm not talking...

I ventured out to the vet's office a few weeks ago with a Miniature Pinscher in tow. Sam Fisher (the same of Third Echelon fame), my beloved pup, was to see the doctor for a regular checkup and heartworm test. While waiting i...

Remember when Hulk Hogan was an actor in movies like Suburban Commando -- side note: you must look this up, if you aren't familiar with it -- or the time his family got their own television series on VH1? Forget about all of ...

11 seconds! That's how long this short, sweet trailer for Crazy Taxi will take to watch. Oddly enough, in that amount of time, we're told much of what we need to know about this release.
The iOS version of the classic Dreamc...

Everybody loves Rube Goldberg machines. It's a fact of life. From breakfast in Pee Wee's Big Adventure to OK Go's "This Too Shall Pass," the art of building a contraption to perform a simple task through a series ...

As an Android user surrounded by iOS gamers, I sometimes feel like the red-headed stepchild when it comes to mobile gaming. Thankfully, the folks at Humble Indie Bundle have been pointing out some of the better Android games,...

When people talk about good games to ease newbies into board games, The Resistance is one that gets brought up often. Heck, we have even played a few games of it on our forums. It took the hidden team aspect of Werewolf, tra...
